Wretched be the woman of wealth and fortune who fails to produce a suitable heir . And wretched is what Duchess Camille feels living with the cruel and debauched duke. But that soon turns to desperation when she learns her lecherous husband is plotting to have her killed to make way for a more nubile and fertile companion. Knowing she cannot sit idly by and wait for death, she flees into the night, taking with her her own young lover the stable hand Henri and her most loyal servants. With a mind to finding refuge with Maxime, her first love who years ago ignited her sexuality, Camille and her servants take cover in brothels along the way and succumb to the physical delights on offer, sating their longings and fuelling jealousies with one another. But the duke's men are not far behind, and Camille knows they must press on, hoping against hope that the man who has every reason to turn her away will remember the fervent passion that once coursed between them.

Think Clue. Think page-turner.”—Glamour A dead body is one mess she can’t clean up on her own. Molly Gray is not like everyone else. She struggles with social skills and misreads the intentions of others. Her Gran used to interpret the world for her, codifying it into simple rules that Molly could live by, but since Gran died a few months ago, Molly has been navigating life's complexities by herself. With gusto, she throws herself into work as a hotel maid. Her unique character, along with her obsessive love of cleaning and proper etiquette, make her an ideal fit for the job. She delights in donning her crisp uniform each morning, stocking her cart with miniature soaps and bottles, and returning guest rooms at the Regency Grand Hotel to a state of perfection. But Molly’s orderly life is upended the day she enters the suite of the infamous and wealthy Charles Black, only to find it in a state of disarray and Mr. Black himself dead in his bed. Before she knows what’s happening, Molly’s unusual demeanour has the police targeting her as their lead suspect. She quickly finds herself caught in a web of deception, one she has no idea how to untangle. Fortunately for Molly, friends she never knew she had unite with her in a search for clues to what really happened to Mr. Black. But will they be able to find the real killer before it’s too late? Both a Clue-like, locked-room mystery and a heartwarming journey of the spirit, The Maid explores what it means to be the same as everyone else and yet entirely different—and reveals that all mysteries can be solved through connection to the human heart.

Category Fiction > GL (Girls' Love) Fiction > Short Story Fiction > Korean Fiction (Web Novel) Summary A small girl with a talent for magic from a small country has become Empress. One of the duties of the handmaidens who serve her is to heat up the Empress's body before she takes a man into her bed, so that she can enjoy greater pleasure. One of the most favored of the maids, and she truly loves the Empress, but for some reason, the Empress doesn't call her in the bedchamber lately. Until one day, she is summoned to the Empress's bedchamber. She's been trained in all sorts of skills to prepare the Empress's body for a great pleasure. An one-act play of tantrums and heat. #western #courtAndNobles #hardcore #king/noble * This short story of GL(Girls' Love) is translated from from the original Korean short web-novel. (text only, no illustration) Tables Of Contents Title Page Body Content Copyright (36 pages in approx. print length) Preview The handmaiden wrinkles her skirt in pain as she watches her Majesty become a woman, crying out in pleasure. "My dear, isn't your work done here?" Hmph, the maid turns her head, her lips press together in a momentary scream. Peering at her through the crack in the door is the head maid, Susan. Even if she is called the head maid, the name of the imperial head maid is enough to make most nobles cringe. The sight of her neat brown hair and bright brown eyes makes the maid jump to her feet. The head maid sees the open door and hears the groan, and as if she understands the situation, she quietly closes the door behind her. Even her actions are graceful and serene, like the flow of water. After closing the door firmly with her slender fingers, she turns to the maid. "Follow me." The maid, more than a little miffed, lowers her eyes and follows her. *** The maid sighed softly as she cleaned up as her punishment. It had been over a month since she had seen the Empress's face. In that time, several men had entered her chamber. It was her job to arouse the Empress's body before she bedded a man. She did many other things, but that was her favorite. To kiss and lick the soft flesh, to bask in the glory of the battle scars. There were many who did this, but the Empress had grown quite fond of this handmaiden. She never told her, and it's doubtful she even remembered her, but she let her in more often than the others. This was probably because she had a keen eye for the Empress's moods and tastes. She loved it when she could make the Empress's body aroused. She never went all the way each time, so she never performed, but she was always eager to learn these skills. She was always the favored partner among those in the same training. Even those who had met and married men and moved on to other departments sometimes came to her room.
